Kid, You'll Move Mountains
"So be sure when you step, Step with care and great tact.
And remember that life's
A Great Balancing Act.
And will you succeed? Yes! You will, indeed!
(98 and ¾ percent guaranteed)
Kid, you'll move mountains."
Dr. Seuss

In memory of Grizzly.
Goodbye, dear Grizz. we loved you very much. And to my sister, who loved that dog more than anyone in the world did, I hope your heart finds peace in the fact that Grizzly is in a better place because all dogs go to heaven. Andrew and the rest of us are here for you and love you very much.

this makes me feel sorry + sad + happy at the same time. i dont know how
On reddit, read this Ask me Anything post by a blind guy who responds to questions pretty light-heartedly.
Asker: Do you ever get frustrated that you can't see?
blindbutnowidontsee: Hey, cool to meet you! Yes, this is going to sound wimpy, but sometimes I get so mad I can't see I just want to cry. It seems so unfair that I miss this huge part of the world everyone else gets. That being said, without humor, I probably WOULD cry. It helps me keep my head. Education has been good since it was my mom for most of it. Public school, you know, there's a mix of good and bad teachers but mostly they've been good and willing to work one on one.

got mah drink and mah two step
very excited :) I passed my first and got a second interview for a job in SF. Better not butcher this one!
I just went for a run now and had a scary thing happen- as I was running up a hill that was not even that steep, I felt like I couldn't really take in that much air. Then I took out my headphones and found myself wheezing for air :( And the strange thing is that my legs were not even tired at this point, I just felt like my lungs couldn't get enough oxygen. Then, i took a rest and afterwards sprinted to the top of that killer hill on fire trail. I felt like i was suffocating! and it took me a long time to recover. I hope i am not developing asthma :(
On another note, I was also listening to girl talk, and have a new obsession with "still here" particularly 2:40 and on
